Safety Precautions• Rotating shafts can be dangerous. You can snag

clothes, skin, hair, and hands. This can cause serious injury or death.

• Do not work under the vehicle when the engine is running.

• Do not work on a shaft (with or without guard) when the engine is running.

• If the power take off and/or shaft are still exposed after installation, install a guard.

• Install a support strap when servicing a drive shaft to prevent personal injury.

• A serious or fatal injury can occur....

- If you lack proper training.

- if you fail to follow proper procedures.

- if you do not use proper tools and safety equipment.

- if you assemble driveline components improperly.

- if you use incompatible driveline components.

- if you use worn-out or damaged driveline components.

- if you use driveline components in a non-approved application.

• This manual contains safety instructions.

Read, understand and follow this manual.

- Get proper training.

- Learn and follow safe operating procedures.

- Use proper tools and safety equipment.

- Use proper components in good condition.

☐ Is P.T.O. ratio, horsepower and rotation correct?

☐ Mount P.T.O. as per manufacturer’s recommendations and refill transmission.

☐ Ensure oil level is at the center of the sight glasses.

☐ Driveline installed correctly with fasteners and lockwires secured; and blower can be rotated by hand.

☐ Air inlet filter is connected and mounted away from tractor exhaust.

☐ Remove camlock dust cap, discharge pipework open to atmosphere.

☐ Tractor engine at idle. Slowly engage P.T.O. Check for correct rotation and airflow.

☐ Slowly take blower up to operating speed.

☐ Check for vibration, mechanical noise, oil leaks and mounting integrity.

☐ Stop blower. Connect blower discharge hose to trailer and run blower at operating pressure of trailer (15 psi) for 15 minutes at normal speed.

☐ Does relief valve allow 15 psi tank pressure?

☐ Does engine maintain correct rpm throughout the test?

☐ Turn off truck engine, wait for blower to stop turning. Check fusible plugs, relief valve, filter, pipework and oil sumps for integrity.

☐ Is correct engine speed label visible in cab?

Mounting the BlowerCaution:

If you are not using a Paragon kit, the following accessories should be installed. Incorrect equipment will cause blower failure.

Power Take Off For Transmission• Horsepower and torque should be adequate for blower

RPM and pressure.• Select ratio for required engine speed and correct

blower shaft speed.

Constant Engine Speed• The selected engine speed must remain constant

throughout the blower discharge cycle. This requires ECM programming or a trouble control system.

• Program ECM for max 100 RPM ramp rate per second.

Relief Valve• Sized for correct CFM and blower pressure rating.

Installed on delivery side before check valve.• Use pipe compound on male pipe thread of relief valve.

Air Filter • Sized for correct CFM to suit application. Caution: An undersized filter will cause

immediate overheating of blower. The filter should not exceed 17” water restriction. Do not mount air inlet of the filter close to truck exhaust. This will increase the blower operating temperatures above the maximum limits.

• When vacuum loading remove air filter element.

Suction Delivery and Pipework• Should be free of weld beads and foreign metal.• Never use rubber elbows without interac support in the

suction line during vacuum duty conditions. Rubber elbows will collapse, restricting the airflow which will overheat the machine.

Mounting Bracket• Strong enough to support blower weight.• Allow a minimum of 1/2" clearance between the blower

and frame rail (or non moveable object) to prevent damage to the blower.

Check Valve• Sized for maximum CFM with minimal restriction.

Should be mounted downstream of the relief valve.

Mufflers • Sized for minimum restriction and mounted

downstream of relief valve.

Vacuum Valve

Note: When vacuum loading it is important that a vacuum valve is fitted in the system. • Sized for CFM and correct vacuum rating.• This valve is normally mounted on the trailer and

should be positioned between the filtration bag and the inlet of the blower.

P.T.O. Drive Shaft• Blower shaft must be parallel with the P.T.O. shaft axis

within +/- 2 degrees to minimize vibration.• Use tubular, balanced drive shaft.• Do not force end yokes into Blower or P.T.O. shaft.• Blower shaft is 1-1/2” dia. with 3/8” key.• Maximum driveline angle - see table below:

Maximum Drive Angle

Speed Angle “A”

3000 RPM 5 degrees2500 RPM 7 degrees2000 RPM 8 degrees1650 RPM 10 degrees

Mounting Plane• Blower can mount in two planes horizontal and

vertical airflow. Please see Figure 1 / page 10

Note: 1. Pre-cleaners are not recommended.2. Use only stainless steel mufflers for

contamination sensitive products.

10


Mounting the Blower(Continued)

• Drive shaft should have a “U” bolt hanger bracket for safety.

P857 Rotation

• The P857 can run in either rotation. Either drive shaft can be used by moving the cap.

• The P857 can be mounted horizontal or vertical to suit pipework configuration.

Drive shaft turns clockwise

Caution: Mixing or incorrect oil can result in gear and bearing failure.

Note: Change oil every 500 hours, twice a year or as necessary (based upon duty cycle) to prevent premature bearing wear.

Blower Operation• Inspect blower mounting, driveline, P.T.O. and air filter for integrity.• Remove camlock dust cap and connect the hot air hose.• Follow trailer manufacturers recommendation regarding product hose connection and valve operation.• Slowly engage P.T.O. with engine at idle.• Bring up to operating speed and lock engine at recommended speed (shown in cab).• Unload trailer as per trailer manufacturer’s recommendation and do not exceed maximum tank pressure. • While discharging, visually check blower for vibration, mechanical noise or excessive heat.• If relief valve is operating adjust proportioning valve to reduce tank pressure.• Reduce pressure to zero as per trailer manufacturers instructions.• Disengage P.T.O (No cool down period required).• Disconnect blower hose and replace camlock dust cap.

Caution: - The blower and accessories will become hot enough to cause serious skin burns on contact. - Rotating machinery is dangerous. - Always wear ear protection when in close proximity to blower.
